Plus a $1,000 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Giveaway
This is something unique and special with summers in New England. Endless summer days that are hot and sunny are worth the endurance of the previous cold winter months. New England is truly picturesque with its coastal towns and mountain hideaways. There is always so much to do! We live in the coast so the quaint beach towns are inviting with town parades, beachside clambakes and freshly caught lobsters. We love taking evening walks on the beach to old lighthouses and the roasting s’mores in our fire spit while catching fireflies.
We live close to Rhode Island and love to visit the area of Westerly, specifically the Watch Hill Beach, which is home to The Ocean House. Yes! The beautiful yellow historic luxury hotel behind me. I have mentioned this hotel in previous posts because it is so iconic to the coastal towns of New England. I also do a post on their annual beach ball party, which is celebrated around the 4th of July!
Since moving back to Connecticut two years ago, we have been wanting to explore new areas that we weren’t able to explore prior to our move. If you are planning a trip to New England in the summer, we love Cape Cod in addition to their islands—Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard. So much charm and historical beach towns. I have few old posts about Cape Cod and what is great is that it is still the same! We have visited Block Island, Rhode Island and love the rocky clay bluffs on one side of the island then sandy beaches on the other. It’s the perfect little island escape. We want to still travel to Acadia and Bar Harbor in Maine. But we plan to wait until after the pandemic.
How gorgeous is that sunset? We love our summers in New England!
